CHAPTER 36: CHAPTER 35 KIDNAPPED

Ear-piercing voices could be heard nearby.

Yun Sheng noticed that her limbs were bent at odd angles.

At the same time, she felt a sensation like an electric current restraining her limbs, and she realized she was being kidnapped.

Yun Sheng’s consciousness suddenly cleared, and she remembered something.

A few days ago, she had invited the old pharmacist from Taishang Town to Banana Leaf Village, and the newly awoken village chief was overjoyed. The hemostatic agent was a great improvement over the Blood Stopping Flower, greatly enhancing the villagers’ lives, and the village even celebrated for a few days.

The village chief’s grandfather had even discussed with Great Mage Yang and set up a room in the Magic Temple for the old pharmacist to use.

Yun Sheng was planning to use the Medical Soul Divine Needle to cure the village chief’s internal injuries before leaving. During the treatment, she explained the process and steps of making the hemostatic agent to the old pharmacist without reservation.

While the old pharmacist was surprised, he also taught her a lot about the medicinal herb system of Wuji Continent.

He also told Yun Sheng about the relationship between the Medicine Emperor Pavilion and the Magic Pharmacist Guild, and the two talked amicably.

In his youth, this old pharmacist had been a military pharmacist in the army, and he taught Yun Sheng some simple potion formulations.

Everything was normal, but just last night, around the time lanterns were lit, the neighborhood’s Ah Niu came running to tell Yun Sheng that the old pharmacist needed to see her at the Magic Temple to discuss an issue with the hemostatic agent.

Yun Sheng believed him and rushed to the Magic Temple, but just as she pushed open the door to the old pharmacist’s room, she felt an electric shock strike the top of her skull, Little Black next to her barked once, and then she fell into darkness.

When she opened her eyes, it was still pitch black, her eyes covered by a cloth.

At the same time, Yun Sheng also realized that what bound her wasn’t ordinary rope but a type of magic rope with an electric shock effect; every time she struggled, it would emit an electric current, rendering her limbs weak and unable to move.

Hearing some movements around her, Yun Sheng pretended to be unconscious.

"What’s your decision?" The voice beside her ear, as expected, was that of Great Mage Yang.

This didn’t seem to be inside the Magic Temple.

Yun Sheng was certain that her sudden disappearance would lead her father, Yun Canghai, to search everywhere, and Great Mage Yang must have anticipated that, which is why he moved her here.

The moist air, as well as the occasional scent of rocks blowing in the wind, told Yun Sheng that she must currently be in an unknown cave.

A cold voice then sounded, it was Ye Beiming’s voice.

"Do you think, for her sake, I would make such a sacrifice? Yang Shuo, the Ye Beiming you know has never been a compassionate man," Ye Beiming and Great Mage Yang, along with Yun Sheng and the unconscious Little Black.

This was also Great Mage Yang’s secret magic medicine pharmacy in Banana Leaf Village, where Great Mage Yang was forcing Ye Beiming to undergo a Magic Soul transplant.

"Indeed, I always thought Ye Beiming was heartless and ruthless; you are nothing but a beast. Thus, I was shocked that you would care about a young girl," Great Mage Yang suddenly tore off Yun Sheng’s eye covering.

It turns out Great Mage Yang had already known Yun Sheng was awake.

The surroundings became crystal clear; Yun Sheng could see everything around her, including the cold and cruel expressions of Ye Beiming and Great Mage Yang.

Bound to her body were the thumb-thick, purple Magic Cables.

It turned out that Great Mage Yang was also a Dual Element Mage, proficient in both Thunder and Light, two types of secondary magic.

Yun Sheng feigned a scared expression: "Great Mage Yang, Ye Beiming, how come you are here?"

"Stop pretending, you cunning girl. Weren’t you afraid when you humiliated me in front of the entire village last time?" In Great Mage Yang’s hand, his Magic Wand still flickered with the white Light Power, yet his eyes were like those of a venomous snake waiting to devour a weak frog, filled with greed and a murderous intent.

"He and I are neither kin nor related; he won’t save me," Yun Sheng simply stopped pretending, casting a covert glance at Little Black beside her, noticing his ears had already pricked up.

"That’s not for you to decide. Let’s give it a try," said Great Mage Yang, his gaunt right hand striking like an eagle swooping on a rabbit, reaching out for Yun Sheng.

Just as he made his move, Ye Beiming’s feet also moved strangely, as he seemed about to close in on Yun Sheng and snatch her away.

Great Mage Yang’s left hand, holding the Magic Wand, shot through the air in the dim cave, emitting a dark purple light from the soul stone on the wand. Streaks of purple thunderbolts, like fireworks, erupted beneath Ye Beiming’s feet, halting his advance.

On the Magic Wand, one purple and one white, were two distinctly colored Magic Soul Stones.

Yun Sheng then realized that earlier, Great Mage Yang had used a special method to conceal the true nature of his Magic Wand having dual attributes.

Isn’t it said that a mage, even a Dual Magic Mage, can only embed one type of Demon Beast Soul Stone in his wand?

Surprised, Yun Sheng felt a tearing pain in her shoulder, her frail body dropping like a small chick caught in Great Mage Yang’s talons.

"Heh heh, a martial artist facing a mage is always at a disadvantage, Ye Beiming. No matter that you possess an All Elements Magic Soul, when you broke your Magic Wand back then, you had already given up studying magic. Don’t think about defeating me with Combat Skills. You know Thunder Shock can in an instant turn that little one’s head in front of you into mush, just like splitting a watermelon," Great Mage Yang let out a nauseating laugh.

The Magic Wand was broken? The intense pain in Yun Sheng’s body paled in comparison to the shock she received from the news about Ye Beiming.

"What? Still not decided? Then I’ll test my magic on this cunning girl. Guess how long she can last? One Thunder Shock, or maybe two?" Great Mage Yang’s spine-chilling gaze fell on Yun Sheng.

Ye Beiming’s sturdy body trembled abruptly like a pine tree.

Thunder Shock Slash, a type of Thunder Magic that makes living worse than dying, and not even a rugged man could withstand several strikes of it.

"Let her go. I’ll agree to your terms. I accept the Magic Soul transplant, but you must also keep your promise, to cure my eyes," said Ye Beiming, compromising, which made Great Mage Yang ecstatic.

His joy clouded his judgement, to the extent that he forgot to watch for changes in Ye Beiming’s expression.

But Yun Sheng noticed that there was a smile forming at the corners of Ye Beiming’s mouth.

That smile made Yun Sheng’s heart chill.

It was a smile transcending gender, breathtakingly beautiful like that of a devil, but it also caused a strong sense of unease to rise within her.

A smile tinged with destruction and slaughter.
